Spurling kerrison rongeur working length 200mm, thin footplate angled down 90° 3.0mm bite 15.0mm opening, cherry handle

Controlled Access for Precise Bone Removal

The Spurling Kerrison rongeur is a surgical biting instrument designed for controlled removal of bone and other firm tissue during operative exposure. Its 200mm working length supports access into deeper fields, while the thin footplate angled 90° downward helps position the bite at the working site. A 3.0mm bite and 15.0mm opening provide a defined biting profile for deliberate, incremental work. Suitable for general surgery and neurosurgery workflows, this rongeur combines long reach with a focused distal geometry to support handling where access, visualization, and measured instrument placement are important.

Use Cases

• Remove small amounts of bone during general surgical exposure and access procedures.
• Support neurosurgical workflows requiring a long-reach Kerrison rongeur for work in deeper operative fields.
• Use the 90° downward-angled footplate to approach the intended biting site with controlled instrument positioning.
• Apply the 3.0mm bite for incremental removal where a defined working profile is appropriate.
• Use the 15.0mm opening to accommodate the intended bite during repeated instrument cycles.

Care & Reprocessing

• Clean and reprocess according to the facility's validated protocols and the applicable instructions for use.
• Inspect the thin footplate, bite, opening, and handle before and after use for visible damage, distortion, or restricted movement.
• Handle the distal working end carefully to protect the footplate and biting edges from impact or contact with other instruments.
• Store the rongeur in a clean, dry, protected location in a manner that prevents damage to its working end.
